Reconciliation: Pact struck with Turkey, says Israeli official
The deal drafted at a secret meeting in Switzerland calls for Israeli compensation to victims of the raid
JERUSALEM:
Israel and Turkey have reached “understandings” to normalise ties, at a low since the Jewish state’s deadly 2010 raid on a Turkish ship headed for Gaza, an Israeli official said Thursday. The deal drafted at a secret meeting in Switzerland calls for Israeli compensation to victims of the raid, a return of envoys and the start of talks on gas exports to Turkey, once the pact has been signed, the unnamed official said.
